Towbar Fiat Ducato Camper from 06/2006 – for vehicles without factory preparation

Description

The MasterHAK 391400 is a vehicle-specific towbar for motorhomes based on the Fiat Ducato from 06/2006 onwards. It has been designed for vehicles without factory towbar preparation or a SAWIKO RA030i mounting system.

The system is suitable for motorhomes with an extended rear overhang. It is not a standard towbar for panel vans or commercial vans. Each installation kit is prepared according to the vehicle dimensions and the construction of the motorhome body.

The adjustable towball height allows the system to be matched to the rear of the motorhome and its ground clearance. The towbar can be used to tow a suitable trailer or to mount a compatible towball-mounted bicycle carrier.

Is the MasterHAK 391400 suitable for your motorhome?

Model 391400 is suitable if:

• your motorhome is based on a Fiat Ducato from 06/2006 onwards,
• there is no SAWIKO RA030i preparation,
• the rear overhang does not exceed 2,430 mm,
• there is no wide tank at the rear end of the chassis,
• tanks, pipes and other components do not obstruct the mounting points,
• the chassis and motorhome body match the intended configuration.

Motorhomes built on the same Fiat Ducato base can differ significantly in their chassis extension, rear garage construction and underbody equipment. The towbar must therefore not be selected solely by vehicle make, model and year.

Before approving the order, we check compatibility using the photographs and vehicle measurements you provide.

Information required before ordering

Please send us:

• photographs of the chassis ends behind the rear wheels,
• photographs of the left- and right-hand rear garage support structures,
• a photograph showing the complete rear underside of the vehicle,
• photographs of tanks and other components underneath the motorhome body,
• the rear-overhang measurement,
• information about any tank located at the rear end of the chassis,
• information about an existing or planned AMPLO levelling system.

Measure the rear overhang from the centre of the rear wheel or rear axle to the furthest point of the motorhome body. Please provide this measurement in centimetres when placing your order.

We will check the information and confirm whether the MasterHAK 391400 is suitable for your motorhome.

Trailers and bicycle carriers

Once professionally installed, the towbar can be used with:

• luggage trailers,
• caravans,
• other trailers approved for the vehicle,
• suitable bicycle carriers for conventional bicycles and e-bikes.

The maximum static nose weight of 120 kg is a type-approved value for the towbar. When using a bicycle carrier, the distance between the towball and the load’s centre of gravity creates additional leverage forces.

You must therefore consider the weight of the carrier, the combined weight of the bicycles, the permitted rear axle load and the carrier manufacturer’s specifications.

The towbar is not designed for carrier platforms used to transport heavy motorcycles, scooters or other heavy vehicles. A motorcycle may be transported on a suitable trailer, provided that all permitted limits for the motorhome, towbar and trailer are observed.

AMPLO compatibility

The MasterHAK 391400 can be combined with a suitably selected AMPLO hydraulic levelling system.

If an AMPLO system is already installed or a future installation is planned, please inform us before ordering. This allows us to prepare the installation kit correctly and avoid possible interference between components.

Installation

The towbar is installed using bolted connections. For a confirmed compatible vehicle configuration, no drilling or welding of the vehicle chassis is normally required.

Installation must be carried out in accordance with the supplied instructions by a qualified workshop experienced in motorhome body construction and towbar installation.

When is a different model required?

Choose a different version if:

• the vehicle has SAWIKO RA030i preparation: MasterHAK 381400,
• there is a wide tank at the rear end of the chassis: for example, MasterHAK 371600, depending on the vehicle configuration,
• the rear overhang exceeds 2,430 mm,
• tanks or other components prevent correct installation.

Selecting the correct model is essential for safe and professional installation.

Processing time

The standard processing time is up to three working days after compatibility has been confirmed and all required photographs and measurements have been received.

Send us your photographs and vehicle measurements before ordering. We will check free of charge whether the MasterHAK 391400 is suitable for your Fiat Ducato motorhome.
